Bertram Park: Yvonne Gregory (at the Chelsea Arts Club Dazzle Ball) 1919 (UK).  The Chelsea Arts Club still has its rooms on Old Church Street in London and a membership consisting of artists, writers, photographers, and filmmakers.  If anyone can sneak me in sometime, just let me know.

Posting will be sparse (if not completely nonexistent) here until next week, as I take some time off from work and blogging to enjoy a few lazy recuperative days in my own San Francisco.  I'll report back from the other side.
